    Why?

    I can't believe I actually paid for this nonsense. A selection of so-called experts spouting thier own hypothesis on a variety of unexplained phenomenon, and how it all comes back to non human entities and the intelligence community in the USA. About 5% of the content is credible, the rest is pure fantasy. The dramatic muzak playing in the background for the entire film is so annoying it was a relief when it finally stopped but worse than that is some of the bizarre visual effects that are simply unnecessary.

    Credible but ruined by unnecessary audio track

    A decent documentary completely spoiled by an unnecessary audio track that at times competes with the narrative that guests are giving, once you hear it, then it's impossible to filter out and becomes a noise that takes away from what should have been a decent documentary. I cannot understand why this trend in docu making happens - the spoken word does not need a permanent "on" musical soundtrack, turned it off after about thirty mins as couldn't stop hearing the music and it interfering with the narrative.

    The guests are good, the tone of the discussion and each interview meaningful, it doesn't provide anything new but it packages up well in he discussion about black budgets, classified programmes and exotic technology plus all the usual things you'd expect but oh my, try listening to those being interviewed against the unrelenting musical soundtrack and it just gets silly and annoying.

    I just cant

    I love UFO/UAP stuff but there's a line to the bs I'm willing to spend my time on. 10 minutes in and we have moved on from UFOs to the JFK assassination? Really? Just stop. I had to turn it off because first, that's just too far down the rabbit conspiracy hole for me and second, I'm not trying to turn into that crazy and unbearable uncle who rails on and on at thanksgiving about stuff that doesn't matter and didn't happen. How do you bill a movie about UFOs then let Jesse Ventura go off about the all powerful CIA didn't see his election coming but then killed Kennedy? It doesn't even matter the other topics they might cover, you'll see conspiracy everywhere if you watch this.

    Ok fairly average but very relivent content

    Anyone at this point who still thinks the UFO's are from earth are either trolls, CIA stooges or very out of touch with reality. We have been lied to for decades and no one seems to bat an eye lid. Content like this is all over the internet for free. People who payed to watch this must have more money than common sense. Which is why we are still having these conversations in 2022. So many people are still in the dark through their own lack or research on this subject matter. It makes you wonder how many other lies have been told. We need more tangible evidence so we can finally stop making these kinds of documentaries. We now want to know where they come from what they are here for and what can we learn from them. That's the kind of content I want to see in the future.

    endless distracting camera angles

    Poor director, and DP. Talk about distraction after distraction. Camera shake , zoom out shots with boom, shots with crew. I mean come on. Not cool at all. Have some class. I love of all Linda's works. This was the first let down.
